Praise the name of the Lord, all nations; extol Him all peoples. Since His kindness has
overwhelmed us and the truth of the Lord is forever. Halleluyah! Thank the Lord, since He
is good, since His kindness is forever. Let Israel now say, "Thank the Lord, since He is
good, since His kindness is forever." Let the House of Aharon now say, "Thank the Lord,
since He is good, since His kindness is forever." Let those that fear the Lord now say,
"Thank the Lord, since He is good, since His kindness is forever." (​Psalms 117​-118:4)

From the strait I have called, Lord; He answered me from the wide space, the Lord. The
Lord is for me, I will not fear, what will man do to me? The Lord is for me with my
helpers, and I shall glare at those that hate me. It is better to take refuge with the Lord than
to trust in man. It is better to take refuge with the Lord than to trust in nobles. All the
nations surrounded me - in the name of the Lord, as I will chop them off. They surrounded
me, they also encircled me - in the name of the Lord, as I will chop them off. They
surrounded me like bees, they were extinguished like a fire of thorns - in the name of the
Lord, as I will chop them off. You have surely pushed me to fall, but the Lord helped me.
My boldness and song is the Lord, and He has become my salvation. The sound of happy
song and salvation is in the tents of the righteous, the right hand of the Lord acts
powerfully. I will not die but rather I will live and tell over the acts of the Lord. The Lord
has surely chastised me, but He has not given me over to death. Open up for me the gates of
righteousness; I will enter them, thank the Lord. This is the gate of the Lord, the righteous
will enter it. (P​ salms 118:5-​ 20)

I will thank You, since You answered me and You have become my salvation. The stone
that was left by the builders has become the main cornerstone. From the Lord was this, it is
wondrous in our eyes. This is the day of the Lord, let us exult and rejoice upon it. (​Psalms
118:21​-24)

Please, Lord, save us now; please, Lord, give us success now! (P​ salms 118:25​)

Blessed be the one who comes in the name of the Lord, we have blessed you from the
house of the Lord. G-d is the Lord, and He has illuminated us; tie up the festival offering
with ropes until it reaches the corners of the altar. You are my Power and I will Thank You;
my G-d and I will exalt You. Thank the Lord, since He is good, since His kindness is
forever.(​Psalms 118:26-​ 29)

All of your works shall praise You, Lord our G-d, and your pious ones, the righteous ones
who do Your will; and all of Your people, the House of Israel will thank and bless in joyful
song: and extol and glorify, and exalt and acclaim, and sanctify and coronate Your name,
our King. Since, You it is good to thank, and to Your name it is pleasant to sing, since from
always and forever are you the Power.

Thank the Lord, since He is good, since His kindness is forever. Thank the Power of
powers since His kindness is forever. To the Master of masters, since His kindness is
forever. To the One who alone does wondrously great deeds, since His kindness is forever.
To the one who made the Heavens with discernment, since His kindness is forever. To the
One who spread the earth over the waters, since His kindness is forever. To the One who
made great lights, since His kindness is forever. The sun to rule in the day, since His
kindness is forever. The moon and the stars to rule in the night, since His kindness is
forever. To the One that smote Egypt through their firstborn, since His kindness is forever.
And He took Israel out from among them, since His kindness is forever. With a strong hand
and an outstretched forearm, since His kindness is forever. To the One who cut up the Reed
Sea into strips, since His kindness is forever. And He made Israel to pass through it, since
His kindness is forever. And He jolted Pharaoh and his troop in the Reed Sea, since His
kindness is forever. To the One who led his people in the wilderness, since His kindness is
forever. To the One who smote great kings, since His kindness is forever. And he killed
mighty kings, since His kindness is forever. Sichon, king of the Amorite, since His
kindness is forever. And Og, king of the Bashan, since His kindness is forever. And he
gave their land as an inheritance, since His kindness is forever. An inheritance for Israel,
His servant, since His kindness is forever. That in our lowliness, He remembered us, since
His kindness is forever. And he delivered us from our adversaries, since His kindness is
forever. He gives bread to all flesh, since His kindness is forever. Thank the Power of the
heavens, since His kindness is forever. (​Psalms 136​)

The soul of every living being shall bless Your Name, Lord our G-d; the spirit of all flesh
shall glorify and exalt Your remembrance always, our King. From the world and until the
world, You are the Power, and other than You we have no king, redeemer, or savior,
restorer, rescuer, provider, and merciful one in every time of distress and anguish; we have
no king, besides You! G-d of the first ones and the last ones, G-d of all creatures, Master of
all Generations, Who is praised through a multitude of praises, Who guides His world with
kindness and His creatures with mercy. The Lord neither slumbers nor sleeps. He who
rouses the sleepers and awakens the dozers; He who makes the mute speak, and frees the
captives, and supports the falling, and straightens the bent. We thank You alone.

Were our mouth as full of song as the sea, and our tongue as full of joyous song as its
multitude of waves, and our lips as full of praise as the breadth of the heavens, and our eyes
as sparkling as the sun and the moon, and our hands as outspread as the eagles of the sky
and our feet as swift as deers - we still could not thank You sufficiently, Lord our G-d and
G-d of our ancestors, and to bless Your Name for one thousandth of the thousand of
thousands of thousands, and myriad myriads, of goodnesses that You performed for our
ancestors and for us. From Egypt, Lord our G-d, did you redeem us and from the house of
slaves you restored us. In famine You nourished us, and in plenty you sustained us. From
the sword you saved us, and from plague you spared us; and from severe and enduring
diseases you delivered us.

Until now Your mercy has helped us, and Your kindness has not forsaken us; and do not
abandon us, Lord our G-d, forever. Therefore, the limbs that You set within us and the
spirit and soul that You breathed into our nostrils, and the tongue that You placed in our
mouth - verily, they shall thank and bless and praise and glorify, and exalt and revere, and
sanctify and coronate Your name, our King. For every mouth shall offer thanks to You; and
every tongue shall swear allegiance to You; and every knee shall bend to You; and every
upright one shall prostrate himself before You; all hearts shall fear You; and all innermost
feelings and thoughts shall sing praises to Your name, as the matter is written (​Psalms
35:10​), "All my bones shall say, ‘Lord, who is like You? You save the poor man from one
who is stronger than he, the poor and destitute from the one who would rob him.'" Who is
similar to You and who is equal to You and who can be compared to You, Oh great, strong
and awesome Power, Oh highest Power, Creator of the heavens and the earth. We shall
praise and extol and glorify and bless Your holy name, as it is stated (​Psalms 103:1)​ , " [A
Psalm] of David. Bless the Lord, Oh my soul; and all that is within me, His holy name."
The Power, in Your powerful boldness; the Great, in the glory of Your name; the Strong
One forever; the King who sits on His high and elevated throne. He who dwells always;
lofty and holy is His name. And as it is written (​Psalms 33:10)​ , "Sing joyfully to the Lord,
righteous ones, praise is beautiful from the upright." By the mouth of the upright You shall
be praised; By the lips of the righteous shall You be blessed; By the tongue of the devout
shall You be exalted; And among the holy shall You be sanctified.

And in the assemblies of the myriads of Your people, the House of Israel, in joyous song
will Your name be glorified, our King, in each and every generation; as it is the duty of all
creatures, before You, Lord our G-d, and G-d of our ancestors, to thank, to praise, to extol,
to glorify, to exalt, to lavish, to bless, to raise high and to acclaim - beyond the words of the
songs and praises of David, the son of Yishai, Your servant, Your anointed one.

Blessed are You, Lord our G-d, King of the universe, who creates the fruit of the vine.
Drink the fourth cup of wine while reclining to the left.

Blessed are You, Lord our G-d, King of the universe, for the vine and for the fruit of the
vine; and for the bounty of the field; and for a desirable, good and broad land, which You
wanted to give to our fathers, to eat from its fruit and to be satiated from its goodness.
Please have mercy, Lord our G-d upon Israel Your people; and upon Jerusalem, Your city:
and upon Zion, the dwelling place of Your glory; and upon Your altar; and upon Your
sanctuary; and build Jerusalem Your holy city quickly in our days, and bring us up into it
and gladden us in its building; and we shall eat from its fruit, and be satiated from its
goodness, and bless You in holiness and purity. [On Shabbat: And may you be pleased to
embolden us on this Shabbat day] and gladden us on this day of the Festival of Matzot.
Since You, Lord, are good and do good to all, we thank You for the land and for the fruit of
the vine.

Blessed are You, Lord, for the land and for the fruit of the vine

Completed is the Seder of Pesach according to its law, according to all its judgement and
statute. Just as we have merited to arrange it, so too, may we merit to do [its sacrifice]. Pure
One who dwells in the habitation, raise up the congregation of the community, which
whom can count. Bring close, lead the plantings of the sapling, redeemed, to Zion in joy.

Next year, let us be in the built Jerusalem!

Then, most of the miracles did You wondrously do at night, at the first of the watches this
night.

A righteous convert did you make victorious when it was divided for him at night [referring
to Avraham in his war against the four kings - ​Genesis 14:15​], and it was in the middle of
the night.

You judged the king of Gerrar [Avimelekh] in a dream of the night; you frightened an
Aramean [Lavan] in the dark of the night;

and Yisrael dominated an angel and was able to withstand Him at night [G​ enesis
32:25-​ 30], and it was in the middle of the night.

You crushed the firstborn of Patros [Pharaoh, as per ​Ezekiel 30:14]​ in the middle of the
night, their wealth they did not find when they got up at night; the attack of the leader
Charoshet [Sisera] did you sweep away by the stars of the night [J​ udges 5:20​], and it was
in the middle of the night.

The blasphemer [Sancheriv whose servants blasphemed when trying to discourage the
inhabitants of Jerusalem] counseled to wave off the desired ones, You made him wear his
corpses on his head at night [​II Kings 19:35​]; Bel and his pedestal were bent in the pitch of
night [in Nevuchadnezar's dream in ​Daniel 2]​ ; to the man of delight [Daniel] was revealed
the secret visions at night, and it was in the middle of the night.

The one who got drunk [Balshatsar] from the holy vessels was killed on that night [D​ aniel
5:30]​ , the one saved from the pit of lions [Daniel] interpreted the scary visions of the night;
hatred was preserved by the Agagite [Haman] and he wrote books at night, and it was in the
middle of the night.

You aroused your victory upon him by disturbing the sleep of night [of Achashverosh],
You will stomp the wine press for the one who guards from anything at night [Esav/Seir as
per I​ saiah 21:11]​ ; He yelled like a guard and spoke, "the morning has come and also the
night," and it was in the middle of the night.

Bring close the day which is not day and not night [referring to the end of days - ​Zechariah
14:7]​ , High One, make known that Yours is the day and also Yours is the night, guards
appoint for Your city all the day and all the night, illuminate like the light of the day, the
darkness of the night, and it was in the middle of the night.

On the second night recite the following:

And you shall say, 'it is the Pesach sacrifice'

The boldness of Your strong deeds did you wondrously show at Pesach; at the head of all
the holidays did You raise Pesach; You revealed to the Ezrachite [Avraham], midnight of
the night of Pesach. "And you shall say, 'it is the Pesach sacrifice.'"
Upon his doors did You knock at the heat of the day on Pesach [​Genesis 18:1​]; he
sustained shining ones [angels] with cakes of matzha on Pesach; and to the cattle he ran, in
commemoration of the bull that was set up for Pesach. "And you shall say, 'it is the Pesach
sacrifice.'"

The Sodomites caused Him indignation and He set them on fire on Pesach; Lot was rescued
from them and matzot did he bake at the end of Pesach; He swept the land of Mof and Nof
[cities in Egypt] on Pesach. "And you shall say, 'it is the Pesach sacrifice.'"

The head of every firstborn did You crush on the guarded night of Pesach; Powerful One,
over the firstborn son did You pass over with the blood on Pesach; so as to not let the
destroyer come into my gates on Pesach. "And you shall say, 'it is the Pesach sacrifice.'"

The enclosed one [Jericho] was enclosed in the season of Pesach; Midian was destroyed
with a portion of the ​omer​-barley on Pesach [via Gideon as per J​ udges 7​]; from the fat of
Pul and Lud [Assyrian soldiers of Sancheriv] was burnt in pyres on Pesach. "And you shall
say, 'it is the Pesach sacrifice'"
Still today [Sancheriv will go no further than] to stand in Nov [​Isaiah 10:32​], until he cried
at the time of Pesach; a palm of the hand wrote [​Daniel 5:5]​ to rip up the deep one [ the
Bayblonian one - Balshatsar] on Pesach; set up the watch, set the table [referring to
Balshatsar, based on ​Psalms 21:5​] on Pesach. "And you shall say, 'it is the Pesach
sacrifice'"

The congregation did Hadassah [Esther] bring in to triple a fast on Pesach; the head of the
house of evil [Haman] did you crush on a tree of fifty [​amot]​ on Pesach; these two [plagues
as per ​Isaiah 47:9​] will you bring in an instant to the Utsi [Esav] on Pesach; embolden
Your hand, raise Your right hand, as on the night You were sanctified on the festival of
Pesach. "And you shall say, 'it is the Pesach sacrifice'"
